Quick Dinner
This is a short week for me with our pending vacation.  Here is Tuesday night's dinner.
 These are the store bought, "fresh" tortellini pasta with a sausage filling.  I'm pretty fond of these filled pastas.  They are generally pretty tasty, the cook fast, they are reliable and can make a satisfying meal.

 While the water boiled and the pasta cooked, I made the sauce.  Onions in olive oil (1/2 onion, finely diced), garlic, salt, pepper and Italian seasoning.  When soft and just starting to brown...

 ...pour in about 1/2-1 cup dry white wine.  Simmer until reduced by half.  Add one bell pepper, chopped, and simmer until tender, then add 1/2 a can of diced tomatoes, cook until heated thru.  Adjust seasoning to taste.

 Toss cooked pasta in the sauce and serve hot.  A pretty balanced meal, fairly low fat, home-cooked and satisfying.  Good to go!
